Oh no! I’m completely overwhelmed with sorrow at the sight of this. I’ve already been attacked by 52 fighters, and now the Great Genius Urbanit of Arrakis is joining the fight against me!

Perhaps it’s just a misunderstanding. English isn’t my first language—how can I possibly compete against such a genius, someone who learned to read before kindergarten and has devoured countless sci-fi books? Meanwhile, I’m barely literate, struggling through poor translations of Herbert’s masterpiece.

Maybe it’s my lack of knowledge and brilliance that led them to believe “violence is bad” is somehow a promotion of violence? Or that I’m grading violence on a scale where killing is worse than punching?

I don’t know. Maybe they thought this content was related to the death of someone they love? If that’s the case, I’m truly sorry. I understand that in some parts of North America, this can be an extremely sensitive subject.
